“Kathleen is a very reliable and kind pet sitter. I hired her for 23 days for my cat Midnight while I was out of the country. Needless to say I was very worried about leaving my cat home alone for this long a duration. But Kathleen checked in every single day at the time agreed on previously and customized the care of my pet. My cat is a picky eater, and Kathleen accommodated every change I had to make to her feeding routine. She also kept the home aired and made sure the home conditions were perfect for the cat. I came home to a happy and healthy cat! Kathleen is a great find and I will definitely hire her again!”
About: I have taken care of all animals from dogs to cats of all ages and sizes. I also have administered medication to seniors and have trained my own dog when he was a puppy. I am currently a college coach. I have a lot of time during the day to let pups out and play with them. I am very flexible. I will take your dogs out to play in the backyard or on a long walk / hike if you don’t have a fenced in yard.

“Stephanie is wonderful, and I've been meaning to write a review for a while now. I recently moved to the area, have two dogs with complex needs & have felt so comfortable leaving them in Stephanie's care. She's been helpful with medication administration, and has provided individually tailored support to both my elderly dog, and younger pup with behavioral difficulties. The dogs have a history of scuffles, and Stephanie has been able to follow along with the complex safety plan that I have in place. I've had a previous sitter reject my rescue pup because the dog was too traumatized and anxious. Not Stephanie! She was really confident with my anxious dog and was patient, participating in multiple visits just to get to know her prior to taking on dog walking while I wasn't home. Completely 100% trust and recommend her!”


About: I was raised around animals my entire life and was the primary care taker! I haven’t lived a day of my life that didn’t involve a pet. My family is big on dogs and every family member has one of their own. I’ve cared for senior dogs and dogs of all sizes. I’m passionate about dog care and consider going into an animal field career! I have experience with cats as well and truly love all animals and aim only for the best care to our furry friends. I work Monday-Thursday 7am-2pm but other than that I have open availability. I’m able to drive and am open to all services. My summer has a lot of availability as I am a student. My care includes my personal knowledge but I follow instructions given as the owner knows their furry friend best. I have always lived with animals and have been there for the ups and downs for each of them. Pets will be given proper care including potty breaks, regulated feeding, and proper engagement to make sure they get all their boxes checked. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and cater to their needs!
“While on vacation our young pup wouldn’t stop crying when she was left alone in our beach rental. Lauren was able to help watch her the very next morning. So responsive! So sweet! So punctual! I can’t say enough good things about Lauren!”
“Carrie was very happy with the care that Maria gave her. When I got back after a 10 day trip, Carri was in great spirits and eating well. This was a fantastic experience for me, especially receiving pictures of Carrie at the care visits. Thank Maria!”

About: What sets me apart is how deeply I care about your dog’s emotional experience when you’re not there. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and my intention is always to create a sense of calm, safety, and genuine love. I pay close attention to their energy, their needs, and their comfort, so they never feel anxious or alone. With my background working with Guiding Eyes for the Blind and as a veterinary nurse, I bring both intuition and experience to every interaction, whether I’m caring for a playful puppy or a gentle senior. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I already live a structured, active lifestyle centered around consistency and responsibility. I walk my own dog multiple times a day and spend time outdoors on local trails and along the Hudson River. I plan my schedule intentionally, which allows me to be reliable, punctual, and fully present for each dog I care for. This is not something I squeeze in. It is something I prioritize and build my day around. I care for every dog as if they were my own, with a strong focus on making them feel safe, calm, and loved in their environment. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I follow their routine closely so nothing feels unfamiliar or stressful. I pay attention to their behavior, energy, and comfort, and adjust my approach to meet their individual needs. I keep communication open with owners so they always feel at ease, knowing their dog is not just being watched, but truly cared for.
About: grew up surrounded by pets, so caring for them comes naturally. My experience looking after children makes me patient, responsible, and loving — the same way I care for every dog or cat, as if they were part of my own family. I am available for pet care from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, as I work with children in the afternoons. During this time, I can provide feeding, playtime, walks, medication administration, and lots of attention to ensure pets feel safe and happy. I’m flexible with occasional early mornings or later pickups if needed I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable whether in my home or theirs. I create a calm and clean environment, provide fresh food and water, and supervise them at all times. I follow any specific instructions from the owner, including medication or special care, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection.

“Liz is the best! She has now watched our 4 small dogs 3 times now while we’ve been on vacation, and I can actually relax on vacation knowing that she is taking great care of them! She gave 2 of my dogs their medication without an extra charge, and gave great updates with every check-in. I am also expecting a baby and she even surprised me and went out of her way to buy my 4 dogs bandanas celebrating the new baby coming which was extremely sweet of her! I will continue to use her again and again!”

“Nicole was a lifesaver for our Thanksgiving trip. We recently moved to the area and struggled to find someone to watch our cat while we were traveling. We recently lost one cat a few weeks ago, so we were nervous about leaving her alone after so many years as a two-cat household. Nicole was prompt, and we could tell that Cupboard was well cared for.”

About: Growing up with dogs taught me something early: pets are family. Outside of my full-time remote tech consulting gig, I provide high-touch based pet care for families throughout Westchester and Manhattan. My goal is simple: create a calm, trusted second home where your dog feels genuinely safe and loved. I intentionally keep bookings limited so every dog receives individualized attention, consistency, and companionship. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, senior, recovering from surgery, or simply loves a calm environment, I tailor care around their exact routine and personality. What makes Kristine different: ✓ 100% work-from-home flexibility ✓ Fenced backyard + Hudson River walks ✓ Real-time photo/video updates ✓ Pick-up/drop-off assistance available ✓ Medication administration experience ✓ Senior & post-surgery support ✓ Calm, low-volume household ✓ Overnight house sitting with light home care included For pet parents who home-cook meals, I’m also happy to prepare fresh dog meals in my home using your provided ingredients. For house sitting clients, I believe premium service should feel complete. In addition to caring for your pet, I help maintain peace of mind by bringing in packages/mail, taking out trash, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy. I’m building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners. Many of my clients become repeat families, and that trust means everything to me. Let’s schedule a meet & greet and see if we’re a great fit for each other. 🤍 My work-from-home schedule provides complete flexibility for boarding, house sitting, walks, feeding, and bathing. I have my own vehicle to help with pick-ups and drop-offs. My home has a fenced backyard, and located close to the Hudson River, offering safe outdoor access and scenic trail walks. For house sitting, I maintain your pet's exact routine in their familiar environment while also helping collect mail/packages, watering plants, and light cleaning to ensure you return to a tidy home.
